Default Re: Looking to Buy my first House, Need some Help/Tips

Wait till you can put down 20%. Private Mortgage Insurance sucks.

Where are you moving to? How much house you can get will vary widely depending on where you are.

Why are you looking to buy so early/young/poor?

More information, please.

What about doing a 5, 20, 75 Mortgage or something like that, where you put down 5% and then you have two seperate mortgages?

I am moving to Galveston Texas, but in addition to looking there I am also looking in the Southeast Houston Area along I-45 (Clearlake, Friendswood, etc...)

The amount of house is not too, too important 2 or 3 bedrooms would be fine.

We are just looking to buy because we would like too, if it isn't all that smart we may wait, but convicing my wife that we should wait will be hard.
